A skeptic takes nothing on faith, even yours.Originally Posted by Zaehet Strife
"I've learned no amount of rational discussion or logical thought will matter to someone shackled by faith. Rational arguments don't work on irrational people. I've learned speaking about religion with certain kinds of people is a waste of time. Not to get hung up on things I can't change. "
Let's have a look at your roadblocks. "shackled by faith" "irrational people" "certain kinds of people"

I think you are a tricky raven Chief but you can't fool me. you believe what your eyes have seen and your mind has thought.
Still dancing and spinning I see. Revisionist history and obvious inability to grasp what I was trying to explain.
I did not watch the video and focus on one part. If you recall, YOU made a claim in a post and I asked you to support it and you used the video as your support. When I did the same calculations, the exact same math, on the exact same pyramid (not an incomplete one) that the anonymous pyramid 'expert' performed, I got a value that was different from the speed of light by MAGNITUDES. Basically, they lied to you in the video and the only retort you had was that I should watch the whole thing. When I asked you why it was so important to watch the whole thing after I caught them in sheer dishonesty, you began to talk about all of the other parallels and connections to other places on earth. I told you I would be willing to discuss those other things once you acknowledged the fact that they were lying about the speed of light claim or show me where my math was wrong. I asked you that if they were dishonest in one part, why would I expect the rest of he video to be truthful? You dodged and danced splendidly while ignoring every point I made up until this day where you misrepresent what I found.
The lesson I got from our exchange is that you are not interested in truth and you are disingenuous in your dialogue with skeptics like me.

Yes, I do believe what I have experienced is exactly what I think it is. I have experienced it too many times at will for it to be coincidence or trickery by my senses or someone else. When you THINK about questions in your head multiple times, and someone answers those specific questions every single time, I think its pretty clear whats going on lol... Im talking about a person btw
Well, we could easily test that, and prove it one way or the other, but my guess is you'd oppose it or say something along the lines of "my friend doesn't want to be tested, he doesn't care, I don't have to prove anything to you...", sooo...
Okay, I'll bite...I agree, there are a ton of interesting characters in hereJust as a side(ish) note, have you ever communicated with someone in a dream, or while in a meditative state?
I've dreamed that I communicated with lots of people...

...do you think any of them were aware of communicating with you at the same time? I'd like to point out that there's no 'hook' here, I'm going with the flow, yoJust a couple of people who get a kick out of making 'stuff' (ie: music, etc...) Actually, now that I write that... do musicians just have really good timing? Is there 'another' form of communication happening when they are in sync?

There is definitely a non-verbal form of communication going on between musicians playing together, and it seems to get more intimate and profound the longer they play together. My best friend is a pianist and we get together at least once a week to play through cool music he digs up, and there is a deep communication and intimacy that no other experience can touch. I think it is obvious to others, I often see our significant others act jealous of this connection as it's something they (not being musicians) can't share. Do you experience similar things?
